Recorded at the 2022 Oslo Freedom Forum, Tanzanian lawyer Fatma Karume recounts in this episode her fight against Tanzania's late authoritarian president, John Magufuli.
Karume co-founded the Center for Strategic Litigation to challenge the regime’s repressive and unconstitutional laws in court. In response to her activism, Karume’s office was bombed in 2017, and she faced disbarment in 2020. Karume turned to Twitter to educate the public about human rights violations and raise funds for political prisoners. Despite John Magufuli’s death, Karume warns of further repression.
